larger and been bloated

Andr3w · 30 Sep 2006 at 15:44

When i go out for a drink with friends i always drink larger, a pint of fosters/carling or something like that, but after say three pints i feel really really bloated, even if i burp/fat/pee or what ever i still feel the same and then have to move onto something like smirnof's (sorry manly people

) which results in me been abit sick because i always get bad if i mix drinks.

What can i drink from the start that won't make me bloated? I dont like beer, larger is nice but after a few i feel bad and cant dance etc because my stomch just churns.

I would drink smirnof's but people see that as girly

lol

Anybody else the same?

ok, something alcoholic

I drink water 90% of the time im at home, only drink alcohol when i go out, like tonight, off to an 18th!

some lager doesn't agree with some people, fosters and carling are renouned for it. fosters does the same thing to me. drink a decent lager and stick to it for an evening.

When I get to that stage, I switch to Holsten Pils.

Well if you like your lager, then switch from pints too bottles. If you want too stay on pints then get a Lager Top.

I never drink lagers because even after just one i feel sick and bloated whereas a good beer goes down a plenty.

However i much prefer spirits and mixer such as vodka redbull or jd and coke.

I've heard a lot of people saying that Fosters and Carling are the rubbish lagers. If that's the case then which are the decent lagers/beers. I only ask because i'm a Fosters/Carling drinker.

My fav is a nice cold bottle of Bud ice, but not many places do it

Somebody mentioned "Vodka and coke? JD and coke?", ive actually never had one of these :O, which tastes best? Do they go straight to your heard (e.g get your abit too drunk)

I personally think of Fosters andd Carling as cooking lagers. Fosters has no taste and Carling has a bitter taste.

Good lagers for me are Kronenbourg, Coors and Becks.

Go for a real ale or bitter then.

magners,strongbow any cider packed with chemicls tbh

i love it , doesnt make me feel bloated like lagers do

Things like Worthington, Caffreys et al are good for non-bloating. Magners and Bulmers seem to be the same. Gassy lagers like Stella are to be avoided.

Larger?

Blagh, strongbow gives the nastiest hangovers

Avoid anything with chemicals in it like the plauge.

Caffreys and Worthingtons aren't lagers though. If I have to drink a lager I'd go for something like Kronenbourg preferably or possibly carlsberg, not anywhere near as gassy as fosters/stella/carling etc.

Truth.

Andr3w, best bet to avoid bloatedness would be to stay away from anything fizzy in large amounts.

Try having a mixer, something like vodka and orange. Should mean your drinking a bit less too.

Depends on where you're drinking.

Paulaner, Warsteiner, Juliper and Budvar are all good.

If I'm a bit full up on beer I'll usually have a Jack Daniels/Bulleit Bourbon and Ginger Ale. (can be a bit pricey again depending on where you are at the time.)

I get like that with Fosters and Carling so I usully stick to Stella first or if that ain't available i'll have Carlsberg. If im feeling rich i'll do Vodka Redbull all night.
